One HUGE reason Crysis will never be on consoles (in it's current form)

RAM!!!! Look at these screenshots I took, do you see the size of the levels in this game? They are absolutely HUGE! And every inch of these maps are oozing with detail, how in the world is this possible on a console (think realistically here) If the 360 can't even run CoD4 at 720p how is Crysis going to be possible? I will take a shot from the editor of a 8192x8192 map if you REALLY wanna see huge.

Obviously Crysis will never come to consoles on it's current form but a downgraded form is a certainty, still would look awesome though just not PC awesome.

money will make them make a version for ps3. watch.PerfectGamer17

Right, because they didn't get enough of that stuff from Nvidia and Intel. :roll:

Didn't they say they were pleased with sales too? I don't think they're hard pressed for money.

But you dont understand....Nvidia and Intel are idiots that dont get what SW fanboys are saying..theyre just burning money on funding Crysis without any returns...

that was sarcasm right? If not, I would say the massive spike in 8800 sales is quite a return for nVidia....

Im quite serious Intel and Nvidia are dumber than SW fanboys... :lol:

you have got to be kidding. nVidia posted their largest profit EVER largely due to the push of several games, Crysis being the flagship. Intel is also reporting massive numbers for their hardware. They already got that investment back tenfold.

thank you captain obvious.Arjdagr8

Alright guys here it is, i made a 4096x4096 map, it can be twice as large if you want! (8192x8192) Anyways This is only a tiny section of the whole map, it is really very amazing how big these maps can be! Sorry about the extremely low quality video, it was the only way I could upload it fast.

Woops I fixed the video link, lol my bad.catlin_czirr

Man, those levels are so awesome, one thing though, the video kept freezing on me and I had to drag it to continue it playing. lol

[QUOTE="ZimpanX"]what mod is that?catlin_czirr

He might mean your pistol skin.

I'm really curious to see how a Crysis console port would work. With Far Cry, they had to actually chance the entire game and make the levels a lot more condensed and more linear and straight-forward, but those were last gen consoles. Could they make a true open-world game this time around? I don't know. I still doubt it.

If you look at Oblivion, which is the best example of an open-world game on consoles, the game has virtually no physics (besides basic ragdoll) and actually not much going on in terms of atmosphere and lighting and such. And that's a big, open-world game. But it tends to chug like hell on consoles, especially when you get on a horse. And that's almost solely because of the size of the world and the draw distance.

Then Crysis comes in with its massive world and and much longer draw distance, but also very advanced physics, particle effects, lighting effects, and other things (wind, etc), all things that Oblivion either doesn't do or does at a relatively low level.

So having said all that, I strongly doubt they'd be able to port Crysis to consoles as an open-world game. Most likely, they'd corridor it up like they did with Far Cry: Instincts and try to keep some of the graphical fidelity. If they kept the open-world design it would probably have to look like a Wii game to be playable, even on the 360/PS3.

oh.... wow... can't believe I didn't put 2 + 2 together... You are making the Exodus map... I have been following the map. Had not checked it all the recently though.

no, that isn't my pic but still found that funny.

Oh and the floating boat.

Oh yeah, I know lol. I fixed that in my new beta hopefully. LOL that's such a funny pic. That shark is evil or something, one time he was swimming upside down while I was testing it.

Yeah, there's some sweet maps that I'm looking forward to as well. When the SDK is released I think we're going to see a big influx of custom made content like the lost world and mechwarrior stuff.

Even the Nes could render a red cross..

Sorry, but can't see the screenshot.

yeah. Lost World looks like it will be much better than Turok in many ways.

I made a comment a few months ago that a Crysis dino mod would probably end up looking and playing better than the actual Turok game. Turns out that will likely be very true.

LIES!!! ram is not a problem if it is optimized well example

EDIT: sorry the 3rd image broke here is link: http://media.ps3.ign.com/media/750/750042/img_4857090.html

here is a game with some amazing texture work on the PS3 and detail, so ram again is not a problem

Gamingrulez

TECH DEMO.

Also, you know NOTHING about the game. For all you know it could be extremely linear with small levels. It also may not have ANY physics. Textures hardly take a ton of RAM. It DOES take up some RAM, but it is REALLY easy to make work arounds that use less RAM with the same effect.

Im desperatly trying to find any fully destructable enviroments...or any 4mile deph of field...

catlin_czirr

You can stream it off a HIGH CAPACITY DISC SUCH AS BLU-RAY. Its ONE whole level. The map is "oozing" with detail but why but detail when its so far away that you cant even see it perfectly.

Crysis CAN be made on a PS3 but I dont think it can be made on a 360.

Cmon, 360 doesnt have enough RAM or Disc Space.

Streaming off a disc would make it run like crap. Disk drives have low bandwidth, low access speed, etc. If anything, DVD is BETTER at streaming because it has fast access speeds.

you are not understanding... Wardevil was ONLY shown in a Tech Demo. Those screenshots were from a tech demo. Tech Demos ARE NOT representative of the final product as they normally better than the games actual graphics as compromises need to be made for gameplay to run smoothly. Also, TEXTURES hardly demand large amounts of RAM. If YOU are trying to imply that Wardevil is as demanding or even CLOSE to as demanding as Crysis RAM-wise, you are delusional. It looks nice but it is hardly a demanding game. Anyone can make nice textures. Just check out all the texture mods around PC gaming. Some of them have EXTREMELY high res textures yet hardly require any more than the regular game... So... What are you going on about?
